How Do You Change A SMOK Tank?

To change a SMOK tank or a SMOK coil, you must first have to unscrew the tank from on top of the mod or pen-style battery, open up the tank by unscrewing the base from the top section of the tank, dispose of any residue vape juice and then you will need to remove the old vape coil, disposing of this in the bin and screwing in a brand new vape coil. When this is done, you reassemble the tank and are good to go.

Changing a SMOK tank or a SMOK coil can be slightly different depending on your current device. Still, for a vast majority of SMOK products, such as the TFV Mini V2 tank, the method of doing this is the same, and the following step-by-step guide will show you exactly how to do this successfully.

  1. Unscrew the tank from the mod.
    To unscrew the tank from the top of the mod, you must pinch the tank, trying to avoid squeezing the glass and unscrewing in an anti-clockwise direction until the tank becomes fully detached from the mod, and then lift to remove it.step 1 of how to change a smok tank

  2. Open the tank and remove any juice residue.

    The next step is to open the tank and remove or clean any e-liquid residue. To do this, you must pinch the top cap of the tank and base and twist them in opposite directions until the tank opens and becomes two separate parts. When this has been done, remove any excess e-liquid into a bin and then clean the tank using a paper towel or a cotton bud.step 2 of how to change a smok tank

  3. Remove the coil and dispose of it and add a replacement coil.

    To remove the coil, you must grab on top of the base of the tank and the coil itself and then twist them in opposite directions to detach the coil. When the coil is disconnected, you will need to dispose of this by throwing it in the bin and then adding a replacement coil.

  4. Prime coil and reassemble.

    The last stage of changing the SMOK tank or coil is to prime the coil, which is the process of adding a few drops of vape juice into the holes on the side of the coil that expose the cotton inside; this helps saturate the coil and minimizes the risk of burning out almost instantly. When this is done, all you need to do is reassemble the tank, reattach it to the mod, refill it with vape juice, and vape away.
